Is it permissible for the pilgrim to enter the state of ihram on the Day of 'Arafah, and what is the best for him?

The questioner : Peace be upon you.

The Shaykh : Peace be upon you.

The questioner : May Allah keep you safe.

The Shaykh : May Allah reward you with good.

The questioner : All right, I say: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah reward you with good. Regarding the ihram for Hajj, if, for example, I entered ihram on the morning of the Day of 'Arafah, is there any problem with that or not?

The Shaykh : There is no problem. I say there is no problem.

The questioner : There is no problem.

The Shaykh : But the best is to enter ihram on the morning of the eighth day.

The questioner : The Day of Tarwiyah.

The Shaykh : The Day of Tarwiyah, so that you get extra good. I say the best is to enter ihram on the eighth day so that you do not miss the good of the night and the day.

The questioner : Yes, yes, I understood now. You say the best is the Day of Tarwiyah.

The Shaykh : Yes, yes. For what? What is it for?

The questioner : By Allah, come on, listen to me. My phone is a bit in the middle.

The Shaykh : I say, may Allah bless you. Yes, I enter ihram on the eighth day, so that I get extra good. So that I get extra good. Yes, yes.

The questioner : May it be well, if Allah wills.
